Lofgeornost #84
Lofgeornost #84 / Fred Lerner, 81 Worcester Ave., White River Junction VT 05001 / mailto:fred.lerner@dartmouth.edu / FAPA and trade / The first section of Fred's August FAPAzine deals with his researches into the life of Joan of Arc, the Maid of Orleans iconized in a statue near the casino in New Orleans. He concentrates on Joan's heresy and purity rather than on her apparent schizophrenia, a relief to see in this secular day. An essay on Michael Moorcock's World Fantasy Award-winning Gloriana leads to a long series of letters from chorus regulars and others, discussing the late Brian Burley, Scotland, Heinlein juveniles, and many another topic of interest to the intelligentsia among our number.
